Porch Roof Replacement in Hetton
Porch roofs leak into the front door head — usually because the lead apron has lifted or the small flat top has porous felt. A proper repair re-details the apron into the brickwork and replaces the top with GRP or liquid. We're regularly on roofs close to the A182, through Easington Lane and Eppleton.
- Lead apron renewed (Code 4 or 5)
- GRP, liquid or single-ply top options
- Pointing made good above the flashing chase
- Drip edge over the door head — no run-back
- Half-day job in most cases
Why Hetton homeowners ask us for this
Hetton's older terraces share a common problem: original ridge mortar from the 1970s or 1980s is now well past its useful life and freezes apart most winters. Planned ridge replacement is far cheaper than the repeat repair cycle.

Why does my porch leak only in driving rain?+
Almost always wind-driven water tracking behind a lifted lead apron or a failed flashing chase. The flat top is rarely the source.
